Oh I believe it. I don't blame Romano for this summer.
It is a depressing update though. We are going down dead ends.
Loan with option to buy? Would we pay him £200k/week?
It’s happening isn’t it! Start the thread.
I wonder if Lange tried to save the day and cried, begging him on his hands and knees to join us?
What’s the point in hiring a proven PL manager then not backing him? He gave a top level novice like Ange far more backing than Frank despite him having zero record in a serious league. What he’s doing is an insult to Frank as well as the fans.
You’re not forced to read my opinion or reply to it. Don’t bother next time and I’ll try my best to not lose sleep. Twat.
I'll only accept this "plan" if big money is spent next summer, but we know it won't be.
I don't know how much stronger we are by the way. Son is gone, Madders is done for the season, Kulu is done until December. Our depth is still poor.
It’s the football equivalent of “I didn’t fancy her anyway…..”.
Hence my saying, very clearly, that it’s as likely to be a fuckup as a plan.
If I were in charge, I’d have done what the club has done and improve the first team with a couple of players and wanted to see what my new manager can do with the rest of the squad to improve them. However, if we believe what’s been said by all journos and ITKs, that’s not been the plan, we’ve just fucked it up.
I actually almost wrote similar. In that I’d be fine waiting for us to really go for it in the next window. But I’ve fallen through that trap door often enough to not repeat my mistake.
And I agree, a central attacking, creative midfielder is an area we are short in.
In isolation makes us stronger but we have lost Son, Maddison and Kulu. That context can't be ignored.

We are rapidly moving further and further down the list and will also be off to AFCON mid December
Aye, just responded above that our central attacking midfield is a concern. And yes, Son, no matter his sporadic performances last season is also a loss. I’d have been more concerned right now if we had those players available and no Palhinha though. A player we have been missing for years.
They're not wrong ....
He will carry the can for this below average window.
Like everyone before and after him, they will always struggle since they don't sign off on the payment.
At some point you hit the part of the list that says dont fucking bother. In this case its titled Lookman.
Brushing up on his Aussie ‘mate’
No, we were short in that area when we were overreliant on Maddison, a single player whose form and fitness are inconsistent.
We now do not have an entire football team. That's not "short".
I only pick on you personally because I respect your usual clear-headedness, but the performative pose you're doing here sucks, man
